Some More Fun Design Team News!

In addition to, the Craft Your Nest Challenge blog and Crafting Ireland on-line scrapbook magazine, I have been asked to join the team at Scrapbooking From the Inside Out kit club!
You can see the blog post announcing the new team here :)

When I told my husband the news, he was happy for me.
But then asked, "how many design teams did you apply, too?" since they have come so quick in succession. And I have never been on more than one design team at a time before :)
I had to laugh because really I applied to just four, not expecting anything. And thought to get even one, would be fabulous!
I really am very picky about what I apply to because I want to enjoy scrapbooking and not be overwhelmed by commitments.

But first for Craft Your Nest, I sent Dawn an email because I saw her post saying she was looking for a few Chickadees and I thought it would be fun! Since ScrapGal, I have missed being on a "team" and having others to work with. I love the deadlines and responsibilities because it has *pushed* me in a good way to improve my style and get more projects done!
And for Crafting Ireland, I thought it would be absolutely amazing to work for an on-line magazine with fun people and I have been inspired by Ireland for a while. :)

As for Scrapbooking From the Inside Out, I spent some time on their boards recently for an on-line crop, and really enjoyed meeting and chatting with the other women. The kits are amazing and I find lately that I really like to work from "kits". I have been creating several pages at once rather quickly this way!
I was also really impressed that on their Current Kit page, they show the kit, a list of journaling prompts, a Pinterest board link for each kit with inspiration, and a music playlist to go with each kit!
I am a Pinterest and music junkie! After seeing both of those options, I sent in my application right away! Plus, one of the songs in the playlist this month was "Beautiful Day" by U2. Um...perfect! :)

 I will actually be starting with the July kit for SFTIO, but here is a sneak peek at the June TRUTH kit...

The reveal is sometime today, and I am looking forward to seeing the contents of this kit. And also the projects made by the older design team members :)

As for design teams, this is it. You won't be seeing any more announcements by me because I am not waiting to hear from anyone else. I am pretty darn happy with my three :)

Hope you have a great weekend and I'll be back on Monday!

  15. Congratulations. I love Scrapbooking from the inside out and have been a follower for a while. Also on the Crafting Ireland Mag... I went over there 4 years ago and taught a class to a bunch of very enthusiastic ladies who had never heard of scrapbooking - so I am delighted to see that it has taken off like this. Love your blog... would love you to take a look at mine sometime... we have a lot in common :D
